Popular Ice Hockey Betting Markets

Head-to-Head

Bet on which team you think will win the match. Simple and straightforward, this is the most common type of ice hockey bet.

Line Betting

Also known as handicap betting, this involves giving one team a goals advantage to level the playing field. It provides better odds, especially when there is a clear favourite.

How to Bet on Ice Hockey Lines

Select the team you believe will win, considering the goals handicap. The favourite gets a goals handicap (e.g., -1.5), while the underdog gets a goals advantage (e.g., +1.5).

Example

If the line is set at -1.5 for the Toronto Maple Leafs against the Montreal Canadiens, The Leafs needs to win by at least 2 goals for the bet to win. Conversely, if you bet on the Canadiens with a +1.5 handicap, they can lose by up to 1 goal, or win outright, and your bet will still be successful.

Totals

Bet on the total number of goals scored in an ice hockey match.

Example

If the totals line has been set at 5.5 goals, you can bet on whether the total score will be over or under this number.

First Goal Scorer

Bet on which player will score the first goal of the match. Because this outcome is difficult to predict, this market offers good odds.

Most Goals

Bet on which player will score the most goals in the match.

Outrights

Bet on long-term outcomes. Outrights offer the chance to make long-term predictions with potentially high payouts. They are ideal for punters who enjoy following season-long narratives. Here are some outcomes in ice hockey that you can bet on with Unibet:

  • The winner of the NHL Championship
  • Teams to make it to the playoffs
  • The winner of the MVP award

 

Live Ice Hockey Betting

If you love to watch ice hockey live, then be sure to open the Unibet sportsbook at the same time and access our live bets. Every ice hockey In Play betting market offers reactive odds that fluctuate depending on what’s happening on the ice. For example, the odds will shift if the New York Rangers take the lead against the Boston Bruins with 10 minutes remaining.

Same Game Multi

Combine individual bets in an ice hockey game of your choice into a multi bet and get better odds. If all your bets win, you win your multi.
